DON’T PANIC!!!!

Let’s face it: The Corona Virus isn’t fun. It’s really serious.
But I guess in the meanwhile everybody knows that you’re not
getting it from drinking Mexican beer.
But don’t panic! That’s about the worst thing we can do! I was
shopping Wednesday morning for our regular needs as usual.
Publix was jam-packed at 8:15 am – normally pretty empty at that
time – and many shelves were plainly empty. And I guess many
people haven’t figured out yet that toilet-paper doesn’t cure
the disease – or prevents infection.
There is not much to be said what hasn’t been said about
avoiding infection. And if you still have questions, listen to
the late afternoon press conferences each day of the Corona
Virus Task Force under the great leadership of Vice President
Mike Pence. He is surrounded by the real experts, not by the
so-called experts discussing catastrophic pictures in the media.
No matter what you hear from the media, we are in this country
very lucky to have such great leadership. Our President tried to
stop traffic from abroad at a very early time – and was
criticized for it. Make no mistake: The Europeans moaned about
the travel ban, but now – a week later – they are following
exactly the same methods initiated at a much earlier time by our
leadership in the White House.
Stay calm, avoid crowds – and be yourself! Most of us were born
after WWII, but we all have seen many world-wide crises before.
We will get over this one too!
I guess we will see in December – just in time for Christmas –
many homes welcoming newborn babies. It looks like many couples
are bored at home with no sports on TV. Isn’t that the way
life works?
In my opinion the best medicine is “POSITIVE THINKING”
and “KEEPING YOUR HUMOR!”
STAY HEALTHY MY
FRIENDS!

Jan Bergemann is president of Cyber Citizens For Justice,
Florida
's largest state-wide property owners' advocacy group.
CCFJ works on legislation to help owners living in
community

associations. He moved to
Florida
in 1995 - hoping to retire. He moved into a HOA, where the
developer cheated the homeowners and used the association dues
for his own purposes. End of retirement!
CCFJ was born in the year 2000, when some owners met in
Tallahassee
- finding out that power is only in numbers. Bergemann was a
member of Governor Jeb Bush's HOA Task force in 2003/2004.
The organization has two websites to inform interested
Florida
homeowners and condo owners:
News Website: http://www.ccfj.net/.
Educational Website: http://www.ccfjfoundation.net/.
We think that only owners can really represent owners, since all
service providers surely have a different interest! We are
trying to create owner-friendly laws, but the best laws are
useless without enforcement. And enforcement is totally lacking
in
Florida
!
